Journal ArticleDOI
The prognostic value of the modifications of the Dukes' C class of colorectal cancer. An analysis of the NSABP clinical trials.
TL;DR: It is concluded that both depth of penetration and the number of positive nodes represent appropriate modifications of the initial Dukes scheme, and one discriminant should not be used to the exclusion of the other.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pathologic findings from the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast Project (Protocol No. 4). V. Significance of axillary nodal micro- and macrometastases.
TL;DR: Two‐hundred seventy eight of 565 patients treated by radical mastectomy for invasive breast cancer in a prospective, randomized clinical trial exhibited axillary nodal metastases, suggesting metastases ≥1.3 mm may exert an influence independent of number of nodes involved.

TL;DR: Findings from the second protocol confirm those previously reported indicating that L‐PAM lengthens the disease free interval following mastectomy and lend support to the thesis that since breast cancer is an eponym to describe a heterogeneous group of tumors residing in a heterogenous group of women, it is unlikely that uniformly qualitative and quantitative systemic regimens of therapy will be required for every patient.
